Hampton (knee) was waived by the Sky on Tuesday.

08/22/2017 5:50 PM

Hampton has struggled to make much of an impact with the Sky this season, averaging 3.6 points across 7.8 minutes in 19 games. That made her expendable and she'll now head to the open free agent market. While she'll finish the 2017 campaign sidelined following knee surgery, Hampton is hoping to be at full strength ahead of next season.

Updating a previous report, Hampton (knee) has been cleared to play in Sunday's game against the Liberty.

Hampton was expected to miss Sunday's contest with a sore knee, but must've progressed enough throughout the day and has now been given the green light to take the court. That said, she's largely been just a minor contributor off the bench and usually doesn't produce enough to be a relative DFS option.

Hampton is dealing with left knee soreness and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Liberty.

Considering Hampton is averaging just 7.8 minutes per game this season, her absence shouldn't have a have a huge effect on the team's regular rotation. Her next opportunity to play will be Friday against the Fever, but look for Hampton's status to be updated later in the week.

Hampton's 12 points marked just the third time this season that she's scored in double-digits. The sophomore doesn't have a secure role within the Sky's gameplan, seeing just 7.5 minutes per game this season. And, while she's shooting an impressive 39.3 percent from beyond the arc, the rest of her game seemingly has yet to catch up with her range. With that in mind, Hampton can be safely avoided in probably every fantasy format until she sees her role expand.

Hampton entered the All-Star break averaging 3.2 points across 7.5 minutes per game so far this season.

Other than logging her first career start, Hampton has struggled to do much in her second WNBA season. She's averaging 7.5 minutes per game and while that's up from the 6.8 she averaged last season, it's not enough to make her a reliable fantasy target. That said, with the Sky sitting in last place in the Eastern Conference standings, there's a chance they try and get her a few more minutes in the second half of the season to aid in her development.

Hampton recorded 14 points (5-8 FG, 2-4 3PT, 2-2 FT), one rebound and a steal across 15 minutes in Tuesday's win over the Storm.

Hampton posted a season-high 14 points Tuesday after coming off a scoreless outing against Dallas. Although 14 points in 15 minutes is impressive for the second-year forward, it doesn't reflect Hampton's performance this season, as she's averaging just 3.4 points and 0.7 rebounds across 7.7 minutes per game.

Hampton recorded 12 points (4-7 FG, 4-6 3Pt), one rebound, one assist and one steal across 16 minutes during Wednesday's 90-84 victory over the Wings.

07/12/2017 2:57 PM

Hampton, who sees just 6.6 minutes per game, caught fire during Wednesday's affair, drilling four threes en route to 12 points in only 16 minutes of action. While her performance was certainly impressive, Hampton is essentially a fantasy non-factor due to her lack of workload.
